When we surveyed staffing buyers in 2006 regarding contingent worker assignment limits, 51% said they had some kind of limit on length of assignment for such workers. Limits varied widely from less than a year to more than a year. The most recent buyer survey, completed a few months ago, found almost exactly the same result. That's not what we expected.
